APO RESEARCH · REPORT
Super Engineering Plastics
Plastics basically fall into two categories: thermosetting resin and thermoplastic resin. Thermoplastic resin is further classified into general purpose plastics and engineering plastics. Engineering plastics are classified as thermoplastic resin that can withstand heat of over 100˚C. Even more heat-resistant thermoplastic resins able to be used for a long period in heat of over 150˚C are called “super engineering plastics.”

Even more heat-resistant thermoplastic resins able to be used for a long period in heat of over 150˚C are called “super engineering plastics.”
Super engineering plastics are at the highest end of the spectrum, generally with very high strength and thermal resistance. They are used in high temperature, high stress applications, in harsh environments, and low to medium volume production.
